IOL: A Step Beyond
IOL: A Step Beyond: "Drebach - In a freak chain of events, a burning wasp triggered a fire in the attic of a house in an eastern German town, police reported on Wednesday.
Police in the town of Drebach said a roofing worker was attacked by a swarm of wasps. To protect himself, he used his blowtorch against the insects, setting one of the wasps on on fire.
The insect then flew back to its nest, which was located in the rafters, setting it on fire.
The blaze then spread to the attic, police said.
The damage was estimated at �2 000 (almost R16 000). - Sapa-dpa "

Jamaica braces for ferocious Hurricane Ivan. 10/09/2004. ABC News Online
Jamaica braces for ferocious Hurricane Ivan. 10/09/2004. ABC News Online: "Jamaica is now bracing for Hurricane Ivan after its 240 kilometre per hour winds devastated the island of Grenada.
Half a million people were urged to leave their homes in low-lying areas of the south, including parts around the capital, Kingston, but officials said many residents were reluctant to abandon their homes for fear of looting.
Residents of the island of 2.7 million people were scrambling to protect their homes and stock up on supplies before the hurricane was due to make landfall on Friday night.
'This one looks like a killer. If it follows the same path, a lot of us will die,' Kingston resident Jefferson James said.
At 5:00am local time, Ivan's centre was about 360 kilometres south-east of Kingston.
It was moving west north-west at 20kph and was due to hit Jamaica on Friday night.
Ivan's winds had weakened a little to near 230kph but forecasters warned it remained a dangerous category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale of 1-5 and could pick up strength again and reach the top of the scale as it approached Jamaica.
Ivan killed at least 23 people as it roared through the Caribbean, most of them on the devastated spice island of Grenada, which officials said remained without power or water."

Bartlett Police Search for BBQ Bandits
Police are looking for two men who held up the Pig N Whistle restaurant Saturday night. The men, armed with a sawed-off shotgun, went into the restaurant in Bartlett a few minutes after closing time, robbing the employees and forcing them into the walk-in coolers. They took the cash from the registers and got away, but not before their vehicle was seen by a man who had arrived to pick his daughter up from work. The men are described as 6 ft. tall, one wearing a light blue bandana over his face and a red t-shirt. The other was wearing a dark blue t-shirt and a red bandana over his face. If you have any information, call Bartlett Crimestoppers at 382-MONY.

Run for your life! There are sharks in the river!
This story interested all the swimmers in our class
Sharks, as the new movie "Open Water" shows, are the predators of the deep, lurking beneath the high seas. So it's a little strange to hear they could also be lurking a little closer to home.
Like in the Mississippi River. It's possible - although unlikely - that sharks could be swimming around in the Big Muddy. One species, called the bull shark, is capable of living in fresh water.
"It's very realistic. It's not something that probably happens with a lot of regularity," said Glenn Parsons, a shark expert and professor of biology at Ole Miss. "They probably move up into the Mississippi certainly with more regularity than we are aware of." In September 1937, two fishermen near Alton, Ill. - 1,400 miles north of the Gulf of Mexico - pulled a 5-foot-long, 84-pound bull shark from their nets. Bull sharks have been found hundreds of miles up the Amazon; in Lake Nicaragua, a freshwater lake in Central America; and 160 miles up the Atchafalaya River in Louisiana, among other spots, Parsons said. In 1916, in one of the country's most famous shark attacks, two boys were killed and another seriously injured while swimming in Matawan Creek, a small tributary - 40 feet wide at its biggest point - in New Jersey several miles from the sea. Although a great white has often been blamed in those attacks, it's considered likely that a bull shark killed the boys. Still, experts say you shouldn't get too worked up about the possibility of spotting a dorsal fin on the Mississippi. "If you think of the odds, you have a better chance of winning the lottery," said Jack Grubaugh, an associate professor of biology at the University of Memphis. "This is like the chimpanzee writing 'Hamlet.' "
